    but their lifelong detachment from reality as they live in a privileged bubble

    Does that include Bernie?

    Wisdom can be written down, that would be more wise to do anyway.

    Something written may not be read. Better to have both, the Wisdom at ground zero in real-time (especially if the feces is hitting the fan), and written down afterwards for posterity’s sake.

        Well, when someone says that ALL of them live in a “privledged bubble”, and I can see with my own eyes some that do not, I’m going to push back against that b.s. /shrug

        Metaphoricallyh speaking, people keep trying to treat Life like its an On/Off switch, when in truth is a Volume control/dial, it has variance.

      That was a slam dunk because he’s the obvious exception.
